Hi,
My System configuration is given below:

  • PC, Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00 GHz, Dual CPU Dual core,3 GB RAM
  • Linux OS (RHEL 4.0)
  • Ethernet NIC adapter (10/100 Mb/s)
And now my queries are:
1) Can wireshark support the data rate 70- 80 Mbps?
2) What is the maximum data rate supported by wireshark?

Note :Assume that wireshark is run on single system where no other process is running.

with regards,
Tapas Chatterjee
